Anyone has a list of social norms in Singapore ?
Doing anything outside of this list will raise eyebrows from others.
How about life in general?
Psle > o level > a level > uni > work > marry, buy house, buy car, have min 1 kid, yearly hols
If deviate from this route means abnormal

This are pet peeves rather than social norms
To add on,
Ppl stopping in the middle of walkway, in front of escalator and mrt gantry
Ppl too engrossed in hp and dun look at where they are going
The raffles city and raffles place mrt is quite true but sometimes the naming of places is also quite confusing nowadays
Esplanade mrt dun stop at Esplanade theater just to name one
Just curious
What's the latest social norms ah?
